... is applied to the new bottom by installing anodes in the sand bed, laid in-between old and new bottoms. Large diameter tanks usually have impressed current cathodic protection (ICCP) systems with an MMO anode due to high CP current demand, and small diameter tanks have galvanic anode CP systems. Current...

... cathodic protection configurations are used worldwide in tanks. The field-erected mixed metal oxide (MMO) anode welded grid configuration was an early application of MMO anodes for tank bottoms and has a large global installed base. A newer design to protect tank bottoms is a system of parallel...

... ABSTRACT In 2012, a cathodic protection (CP) trial was undertaken to establish the current requirements to protect the submerged and buried bare steel internal surfaces of monopiled windturbine structures in the North Sea. Aluminium alloy anodes were utilized for the CP trial system...

... metal or galvanic anode. The chemical reaction taking place in an electrochemical cell causes the cathode to be protected and anode to disintegrate. For larger structures and where electrolytes have high resistivity, the potential difference between cathode and galvanic anode is not enough to generate...
